Look I just want you all to know that if you need to take some time for yourself, turn off your phone and barricade yourself into a labyrinth of books from whence you shall emerge only once every 1000 years to wreak havoc on the realms of men, that's perfectly natural ok

Calling yourself a king doesn’t make you king. Killing your brother and marrying his wife only to be haunted by his ghost and poisoned by his son before you manage to kill him with the poisoned blade and no one is left but some bloke named Horatio is how you become king
Calling yourself a king doesn’t make you a king. Being crowned at Car Paravel with your three siblings by Aslan does.
Calling yourself a king doesnt make you a king. Delivering an all-time banger of a speech on St. Crispin’s Day does.

Most common issue I’m seeing in manuscripts in 2025 so far:
Every scene is doing one thing and one thing only.
Try for at least two, but all four would better:
- push plot forward
- explore setting
- internal character stuff
- external character/relationship stuff

Sometimes, I write something into a manuscript, even though I know I'm just going to cut it a few drafts later, because an author is allowed to have a little darling as a treat.

If you’re looking for a free way to support an author, did you know you can ask your library to stock a book you want to read that they don’t have yet? And usually it’s a very basic online form? Google your library name plus the words “request a title” or “suggest a title” to find yours.
